Montréal AI startup Bloomsco raises $1M to serve Canadian military training needs

Bloomsco, a Montréal AI startup, announced a $1-million pre-seed equity round from BDC Capital’s Seed Venture Fund and Telegraph Ventures. The company develops a software platform that allows defence contractors to create training materials for the military. Bloomsco has already secured a contract with the Department of National Defence to create a qualification standard and training plan for an officer role.

The funding will allow Bloomsco to expand its engineering team and refine its technology for use in classified and air-gapped environments. The company's platform addresses the education and training gap between contractors and the military, supporting the Department of National Defence's procurement strategy for advanced training solutions.
